Description

I am running Moodle 1.6.1 with a local language so that the links to the Documentation at the bottom of each page look like for example http://docs.moodle.org/en_yo/course/view. The wiki redirects this to http://docs.moodle.org/en rather than http://docs.moodle.org/en/course/view

Hi Gustav,

Just reading some documentation (from http://docs.moodle.org/en/Translation )...

Starting in Moodle 1.6, the very best method is just to create a new language directory called "xxxx_local" where xxxx is the name of the language pack you want to modify (eg es_utf8_local or ja_utf8_local). This new local language pack will automatically be checked before the main one. The local pack only needs to contain the local changes (you don't need a complete copy of the language you are modifying). It will not appear in the language menus for selection and your users do not need to change their settings.

Could renaming your local language directory to en_utf8_local and resetting your site language back to en resolve this issue?
